Options for door safety upgrades in Ystradgynlais
- Light curtains. Full-height multi-beam detection across the whole opening.
- Panel upgrades. Where the old panel cannot monitor devices, we replace it with one that can.
- Warning devices. Lights and sounders make sure people know when a door is about to move.
- Force testing. We measure how hard the door closes and record the results at each test point.
- Photocells. If something breaks the beam, the door will not close.
Jobs we can carry out
- Force-testing a run of loading bay doors and adjusting closing speeds where results exceed the limits.
- Adding anti-fall devices to heavy roller shutters identified in a workplace risk assessment review.
- Carrying out safety upgrades on the powered doors of a newly leased unit before a tenant moves in.
Safety law for industrial doors in Wales
Industrial doors in Ystradgynlais are covered by the same rules as the rest of Great Britain. On handover you should receive user instructions and, for a powered door, the conformity paperwork, because the installer is treated as the manufacturer when they assemble or motorise it. Afterwards, keeping the door in efficient working order is the occupier's job under the Workplace Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998, which in practice means regular servicing and a written log.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.
